SS gourgeist is very tanky when all defense ivs are invested, it can survive hits from mega salamence and mawile, and be able to get a nice will o wisp on, with them feeling too confident

Its also breloom, Cincinno and mega metagross's worst nightmare, they literally cant touch it, Heck even a mega Gyrados ice fang barely phases it

Its got a good powerful STAB move in seed bomb, as well as nice priority with shadow sneak

Its leech seed is also good for forcing out those tricky pokemon that have just set up.

However, due to the move tutor not being out, Gourgeist cannot learn synthesis yet, nor foul play, but even not at full potential its a very tanky wall

Its decent ability in Frisk can also tell you where all those damn focus sashes are

I would honestly put it at High C/Low B for now I agreed with all these, it has an effective niche though lacking reliable recovery as of now (Synthesis). This makes it uncapable of checking mons repeatedly, preventing it from being B rank.

Gourgeist (Super) : Unranked >>> C+
